DataForGood-Norway / JobMatch

An attempt to provide personalized career and job search advice to jobseekers in Norway.

JobMatch

This project is an attempt to provide personalized career path and job search advice to jobseekers, starting in Norway!

With this project, we aim at using information from NAV and other Norwegian job agencies like finn.no to reproduce the project BobEmploi in Norway.

BobEmploi is an application that uses algorithms to provide personalized advice to jobseekers: not just recommendations for their job search, but a personalized diagnostic on the job market in their domain, on their own profile, on the tools they could use or improve in order to increase the chances of success.

What Are We Doing?

This project hasn't started yet, but preliminary work would include:

• BobEmploi: Following and understanding the work done by Bayes Impact on BobEmploi.

• Data Collection: Looking for similar data used in BobEmploi, most probably coordinating with NAV and 'finn.no'.

See the original project idea for the initial discussion.

Goal

Helping jobseekers during their search by providing personalized advise with the goal of reducing unemployment and enhancing job matching.
